The study explores the cost and quality of malaria care in public and private heatlh facilties at the primary health level in an urban community in south western Nigeria. A pre-tested questionnaire is adminstered to patients attending either public or private health facilities to estimate the direct and indirect cost of accessing healthcare services. Costs was estimated from the providers's perspective by using interviews and review of financial records to assess the total and unit cost of such services. Structural quality (adequacy of equipment and staff mix) and process quality (interpersonal relationship, use of treatment guidelines and algorithms) are assessed using structured checklist, observation and proxies such as patients' satisfaction. 2014-11-09T15:52:38Z 2014-11-09T15:52:38Z 2006 Master Thesis Masters MPH http://hdl.handle.net/11427/9463 eng application/pdf Health Economics Unit Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town
